HEALTHIER BANANA SOUR CREAM BREAD

Healthier Banana Sour Cream Bread image

Esther is right! The sour cream makes this one so moist it melts in your mouth. I make it healthier by using light sour cream, whole wheat flour and less sugar and butter --and you know what? No one can tell the difference!
